Product Description
We always have expectations with Madhur Bhandarkar from his movies. He maintains his own style and talk about the reality. He has his own genre where he tries to give reality a face of commercialism.

 A Great Film April 16, 2009

The movie Fashion was very "at the edge of your seat" type of film. Although it was very long, I was still entertained the whole time. The film is about a small town girl Meghna Mathur(Priyanka Chopra)trying to pursue her dream as a supermodel. Meghna's longing ambition and drive for success makes her unreasonable. On her way up the latter of success she encounters a new side of her. This side does not only show her arrogance(Forgetting those who care for her, Affairs, Drinking, Drugs, not showing up for work, etc) it shows her way down the latter. You will be asking whats next.
It is worth the buying, the songs will get stuck in your head.
Excellent movie August 11, 2009

An outstanding movie. Great depiction of the dark side of fashion world and how people use and throw each other. Priyanka Chopra is a brilliant actor.Arjan Bajwa is not just dashing and cool-looking, he has talents to match.
Most importantly the movie is about redemption and rebirth. Meghna Mathur realizes that she just got lucky due to Shonali and tries to help Shonali. An exhilirating emotional experience!

Being a huge Bollywood Fan I can honestly say that, Bollywood has literally out done itself with this Film!!!! The Fashions, the music, the sets, the storyline, and the actresses and actors all magnificent. Buy this one you will not be dissapointed.
Fabulous! February 12, 2010

This movie is about the fashion and modeling industry where some models descend into despair with alcohol and drugs - a story that has been told many times before (but not as well) by Hollywood (not saying it's a remake). One model falls completely to the bottom of the well of despair while another one falls only half way down and tries to help her up too. This is a quality film and easy to give a 5 but it does not have all the usual attributes that cause me to buy Indian films.
If you are looking for an Indian film that is funny and full of songs and dancing with some over acting thrown in here and there, (one of the reasons why I buy Indian films) then maybe this film is not for you. That said, the music and background vocals are the best I've heard in this type of film. Models model clothes that look like they could actually be worn on this planet and real top models (by anyone's standards) model and act in this film.
So many actors do such a good job in this film that it is hard to single out anyone. Priyanka Chopra is an absolute goddess of beauty and her acting (in this film) is right up there with the best. Kangana Ranaut (a young actress playing Shonali, (the top model) is brilliant in a tough roll. Mugdha Gogse (a real model who acts in the film) plays a wonderfully light hearted but mentally strong woman who is unaffected by the down side of the modeling industry. The male stars playing gay designers are, in a word, fabulous (they walk the edge without being too much). As in real life, there are 2 groups of people - those who use people and throw them away and those who help people while risking themselves. This is what makes the bittersweet ending so gratifying.
Fun to Watch May 26, 2010
R. Haeckler (West Chester, PA)
If you like the kind of movies where a small-town kid makes it big, then this is a good one for you. The storyline seems pretty real - the mother wants her daughter to follow her dreams while the father is concerned that it's not a good career move. They find out about her mistakes but still love and support her.
The meteoric rise in the fashion industry of the main character is really fun to watch. I agree with the other reviewers the fashion shows and other models seem like the real thing. You see the naive young girl slowly lose her ethics until she doesn't recognize herself any more and has a breakdown. But then with the help of her father she finds herself again and finds her strength to become the good person she can be again, and be true to her friends.
Excellent film!
